Financial and operating review
OVERVIEW FOR THE QUARTER
Following the successful launch of the company’s
“Safety is our first value” campaign during the
fourth quarter of 2007, the early indications of an
improved safety performance are encouraging.
For the quarter, a lost time injury frequency rate of
7.60 per million hours worked was achieved,
which marks an improvement against a rate of
8.08 in the prior quarter and 8.24 for the 2007
year. In respect of medical treatment injury rates,
a 12% improvement has been noted against the
2007 rate of 27.85. The fatal injury frequency rate
for the quarter was 0.13 per million hours worked,
against a rate of 0.21 per million hours for the
previous quarter. This rate compares favourably
against the rate of 0.36 recorded for the first
quarter of 2007, and is 37% lower than any
previous first quarter result in the history of the
company, and 80% lower since the introduction of
the safety campaign.
Leading safety indicators at the South African
operations showed an improvement, with four of
the seven operations recording improved accident
rates. Elsewhere in Africa, Navachab, Yatela,
Iduapriem, Siguiri and Geita were all injury free.
Iduapriem achieved a further milestone with five
million shifts recorded without a lost time injury at
the end of March 2008.
During the quarter, regrettably five employees lost
their lives, with three accidents recorded at the
South African operations and one each at Obuasi
in Ghana and Serra Grande in Brazil. This tragic
loss of life underscores the ongoing need for
safety to remain the key focus for every manager
and employee in the company.
Gold production for the quarter reduced by 13% to
1.2Moz, mainly as a result of the power shortage
and year-end holiday breaks at the South African
operations; together with planned lower
production from Sunrise Dam as mining grades
normalised following the completion of mining in
the high grade zone during 2007; at CC&V where
production declined as a result of higher stacking
levels, and at Cerro Vanguardia where lower feed
grades and problems with agitators resulted in
reduced production. Total cash costs at $430/oz,
was 6% higher than the previous quarter, which
was primarily impacted by the reduced production
and inflation, partially mitigated by weaker local
currencies and an improved by-products
contribution.
Gold production and cost performance, did
however, show an improvement on guidance
provided at the end of the fourth quarter, following
excellent work undertaken in the South African
operations to mitigate the negative impact of the
Eskom power situation.
Adjusted headline earnings for the quarter were
$105m, compared with $18m in the previous
quarter which was distorted due to annual
accounting adjustments. Higher received gold
prices and a tax credit following reduction in tax
rates in South Africa also contributed to the
increase in earnings.
Despite a higher gold price, the total net delta
hedge reduced by 1.13Moz to 9.26Moz at
31 March 2008, and total commitments reduced
from 11.28Moz to 10.03Moz. The reductions were
due to delivery into maturing contracts and
additional hedge buy-backs that were effected
during the quarter.
In addition to a total of 6.95Moz attributable
(9.1Moz on a 100% basis) of JORC Inferred and
Indicated Resources declared by AngloGold
Ashanti on 31 December 2007, a further 12.9Moz
of new Inferred Resources has been defined at
AngloGold Ashanti’s 100% owned La Colosa
project in Colombia.
Based upon present drilling and geochemical
observations, the La Colosa mineral systems
including the La Belgica sector, remains open to
the north and south, and three additional targets
immediately surround the known La Colosa
mineralisation. A conceptual study is planned to
be completed in the second quarter of 2008.
This is the first significant gold porphyry discovery
in the Colombian Andes, where AngloGold
Ashanti has a first mover advantage with a land
position of some 37,500km
2
, with significant
potential to increase the resource at La Colosa
and at other projects in Colombia.
On 14 January 2008, AngloGold Ashanti
announced that it had agreed to acquire 100% of
Golden Cycle Gold Corporation (GCGC) through
a transaction in which GCGC’s shareholders will
receive 29 AngloGold Ashanti ADRs for every
100 shares of GCGC common stock held. GCGC
holds a 33% shareholding in CC&V, while
AngloGold Ashanti holds the remaining 67%. This
transaction is subject to a number of regulatory
and statutory approvals, including approval by
GCGC shareholders.
background image
On 14 February 2008, AngloGold Ashanti entered
into a binding memorandum of agreement with
B2Gold, whereby B2Gold will acquire from
AngloGold Ashanti, certain mineral properties in
Colombia. In exchange, B2Gold will issue to
AngloGold Ashanti, 25m common shares and
21.4m common share purchase warrants.
AngloGold Ashanti would then hold approximately
15.9% of B2Gold’s issued and outstanding shares
and fully diluted interest in B2Gold upon the
exercise of the 21.4m warrants, would be
approximately 26%.
In late February 2008, certain North American
royalty and production related payment interests
of the El Chanate and Marigold projects were sold
to Royal Gold for $13.75m.
With regard to the power management in South
Africa, Eskom, the national provider, increased
power supply to 96.5% from 90% in late March
2008. Subject to the power stability and
availability at 96.5% level, production for 2008 is
expected to increase to a range of 4.9Moz to
5.1Moz for the company. This compares
favourably to prior guidance of 4.8Moz to 5.0Moz.
Given inflationary trends currently being
experienced, total cash costs are anticipated to be
between $440/oz and $460/oz, based on the
following average exchange rate assumptions:
R/$7.88, A$/$0.91, BRL/$1.71 and Argentinean
peso/$ 3.16. Capital expenditure for the year is
estimated at $1,262m, and will be managed in line
with profitability and cash flow.
Production for the second quarter of 2008, based
on 96.5% stabilised power, is estimated to be
1.22Moz at an average total cash cost of $464/oz,
assuming the following average exchange rates:
R/$7.80, A$/$0.91, BRL/$1.71 and Argentinean
peso/$ 3.16. Capital expenditure is estimated at
$328m.
OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER
SOUTH AFRICA
At Great Noligwa, power shortages, safety
related stoppages and the slow build-up from the
year-end break, resulted in a 14% lower volume
mined, offset marginally by an improvement in
yield from reduced waste dilution. Consequently,
gold production was down 8% to 3,326kg
(107,000oz). Total cash costs improved 18% to
R96,801/kg ($400/oz), primarily due to uranium
purchases in the previous quarter to meet
contractual obligations, and the adjusted gross
profit increased to R202m ($26m).
The Lost-Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR)
was 15.10 lost-time injuries per million hours
worked (13.24 for the previous quarter).
One person died in a fall of ground accident
during the quarter.
Gold production at Kopanang reduced by 13% to
2,794kg (90,000oz), as a result of power
shortages, increased team training and the slow
start-up after the year-end break. This was further
compounded by a decreased yield of 10%,
resulting from increased tramming widths. As a
result of the reduced production, total cash costs
increased by 20% to R85,530/kg ($353/oz), and
together with an unfavourable inventory
movement, the adjusted gross profit was 16%
lower at R151m ($19m).
The LTIFR deteriorated to 14.37 (11.13). The
mine experienced two fatal accidents during the
quarter.
The build-up at Moab Khotsong continues, with a
5% higher gold production to 764kg (25,000oz),
despite damaged de-watering pumps and reduced
power availability. Total cash costs were 6% lower
at R141,898/kg ($578/oz). The adjusted gross
loss of R151m ($22m) in the previous quarter
improved to a profit of R11m ($1m).
The LTIFR improved to 10.97 (12.16).
At Tau Lekoa, despite a marginally improved
yield of 1%, volumes were down 10% due to
reduced power and safety related stoppages. As a
result, gold production was down 12% to 1,093kg
(35,000oz), and consequently total cash costs
increased 15% to R128,576/kg ($529/oz).
Adjusted gross profit increased to R28m ($3m),
from R6m ($1m) in the previous quarter.
The LTIFR deteriorated to 20.45 (15.57).
Gold production at Mponeng was down 3% to
4,093kg (132,000oz), following reduced tonnage
throughput of 10% due to power shortages and
the slow build-up from the year-end break.
Despite the lower production, total cash costs
decreased by 7% to R61,113/kg ($253/oz)
following an increase in lock-up tonnages,
resulting in a favourable inventory movement. The
adjusted gross profit increased 54% to R404m
($52m).
The LTIFR improved by 9% to 10.57 (11.57).
background image
At Savuka, mining volumes were down by 24%,
and together with a lower yield of 11% caused by
reduced sweepings, resulted in gold production
decreasing 17% to 448kg (14,000oz).
Despite the reduced production, total cash costs
were 4% lower at R88,349/kg ($367/oz), primarily
as a result of a favourable inventory movement.
The adjusted gross profit declined 7% to R27m
($3m), primarily as a result of the lower
production.
The LTIFR improved to 13.32 (17.23).
TauTona’s tonnage throughput was down 18%
and yield was 7% lower, resulting from a change
in the rock engineering strategy due to geological
risk, power shortages and the year-end break.
Gold production was down 23% to 2,311kg
(74,000oz) and consequently, total cash costs
rose by 20% to R93,118/kg ($386/oz). However,
due to a higher received price and lower
amortisation charge, the adjusted gross profit rose
63% to R135m ($17m).
The LTIFR improved to 12.50 (17.82).
ARGENTINA
At Cerro Vanguardia (92.5% attributable), gold
production decreased 45% to 28,000oz, due to
lower feed grade and problems associated with
the agitators in the leach tanks. Total cash costs
rose 78% to $553/oz as a result of lower gold
produced, higher labour and fuel costs, but this
was partially offset by a higher silver by-product
contribution. Adjusted gross profit decreased 13%
to $7m as a result of higher costs.
The LTIFR was 6.12 (1.79).
AUSTRALIA
Sunrise Dam continued to perform in accordance
with the planned production schedule, producing
119,000oz for the quarter. As expected gold
production was 21% lower due to mining having
passed through the high grade GQ lode, which
saw the operation reach record production levels
in 2007. Total cash costs increased 28% to
A$502/oz ($455/oz), owing to the lower gold
production, stockpile movements and higher costs
associated with increased mining activities from
the underground operations. As a result, adjusted
gross profit decreased by 34% to A$25m ($23m).
During the quarter, production from underground
mining continued from the Sunrise Shear,
Western Shear and Cosmo lodes. A total of 255m
of underground capital development and 1,715m
of operational development were completed
during the quarter.
The LTIFR was 6.88 (2.59).
BRAZIL
At
AngloGold Ashanti Brasil Mineração,
production decreased 21% to 72,000oz, as a
result of the lower tonnage throughput and feed
grade from Cuiabá Mine following backfill
difficulties, availability of fleet equipment and rock
mechanic problems. Total cash costs rose 26% to
$316/oz, primarily due to lower gold produced and
stronger local currency partially offset by an
improved acid by-product contribution and
reduced power consumption. Adjusted gross profit
decreased 4% to $25m mainly due to the 10%
lower gold sold and higher costs, partially offset
by the higher gold price.
The LTIFR was 4.39 (1.96).
At Serra Grande (50% attributable), gold
production remained on par with the previous
quarter at 21,000oz. Total cash cost decreased
1% to $290/oz, following efficiencies arising from
reduced power consumption and equipment
rental, offsetting the effects of lower gold
produced and local currency appreciation. The
adjusted gross profit remained at $7m, mainly due
to the higher received price and lower costs,
partially reduced by lower gold sold.
The LTIFR was 2.00 (1.90). The operation had a
fatal accident during the quarter.
GHANA
Production at Obuasi improved by 4% to
87,000oz, due to the treatment of higher tailings
material as well as an improvement in grade.
Despite the higher production, total cash costs
increased 6% to $517/oz, negatively impacted by
unplanned plant stoppages to repair faults on the
ball mill, increased fuel and reagent prices, and
higher royalty payments. Adjusted gross profit
increased to $2m from the previous quarter’s loss
of $23m.
LTIFR improved to 2.27 (3.97). The mine had one
fatal accident during the quarter.
At Iduapriem gold production rose 4% to
47,000oz mainly due to a higher tonnage
throughput following the installation of an
additional crushing unit. Total cash costs
background image
increased 9% to $452/oz, due to higher royalty
payments and inflationary pressures on mining
contractors and fuel costs.
Adjusted gross profit at $10m was $8m higher than
the previous quarter due to improved received
prices and rehabilitation provisions recorded in the
previous quarter.
LTIFR was 0.00 (0.72).
REPUBLIC OF GUINEA
At Siguiri (85% attributable) production increased
12% to 93,000oz, as a result of improved yields
due to mining in higher grade pits.
Total cash costs decreased to $436/oz despite
higher royalty payments and inflationary pressures
arising from the higher oil price, offset by the
increase in production.
Adjusted gross profit of $21m for the quarter was
$17m higher than the previous quarter due to the
increased gold production and improved gold
prices.
LTIFR was 0.00 (0.50).
MALI
Gold production at Morila (40% attributable) was
23% lower than the previous quarter at 40,000oz
due to a 20% decline in recovered grade and a 2%
lower tonnage throughput. The decline in grade
was anticipated and is in line with the operating
plan. Tonnage throughput was adversely affected
during the quarter by plant downtime resulting from
the replacement of the SAG mill gearbox and
extended mill relining. Total cash costs increased
17% to $409/oz mainly due to the grade related
decline in production. Higher fuel prices and a
weaker US dollar also put pressure on operating
costs but were offset by cost control efforts.
Adjusted gross profit reduced by $5m to $11m due
to lower production and sales.
The LTIFR was 3.32 (0.00).
At Sadiola (38% attributable), production was 10%
lower at 36,000oz with a 5% increase in recovered
grade being offset by a planned decrease in
tonnage throughput from treating sulphide ore.
Total cash costs decreased to $405/oz despite the
impact of lower gold production, higher fuel prices,
weaker US dollar and increased royalty charges,
which were offset by a favourable inventory
movement.
Adjusted gross profit improved by $4m from the
previous quarter to $11m, due to the higher
received prices and lower cash operating costs
and the rehabilitation charge recorded in the
previous quarter.
The LTIFR was 1.71 (1.71).
Production at Yatela (40% attributable) decreased
23% to 17,000oz due to a reduction in both
tonnage stacked and recovered grade. Total cash
costs were 5% lower at $522/oz mainly as a result
of reduced cement stacking requirements on the
upper lifts of the leach pads.
Adjusted gross profit of $4m was $3m higher than
the previous quarter due to higher received prices
and lower total cash costs.
The LTIFR was 0.00 (0.00).
NAMIBIA
Gold production at Navachab fell 25% to
15,000oz mainly due to reduced mining volume
following above average rainfall and lower drill rig
availability, which resulted in lower grade stockpile
material being treated and the grade declined
19%. Total cash costs at $490/oz, improved 7%
due to once off expenditure in the prior quarter not
being repeated. Adjusted gross profit remained
flat at $3m in line with the previous quarter.
The LTIFR was 0.00 (3.36).
TANZANIA
At Geita gold production was 10% higher at
64,000oz, due to a 14% increase in recovered
grade that was partially offset by a 3% decrease
in tonnage throughput. Tonnage throughput was
adversely affected in March 2008 after substantial
downtime on the primary crushing system
resulting from problems experienced with the
lubrication pumping system. The metallurgical
recovery problems experienced in the previous
quarter have been addressed and improved
recoveries were achieved in the current quarter.
Total cash costs were 1% lower at $717/oz, with
the positive impact of higher gold production being
negated by increased fuel prices. An adjusted
gross loss of $13m was recorded for the quarter
against a loss of $16m in the previous quarter.
The LTIFR was 0.00 (0.44).

NORTH AMERICA
At Cripple Creek & Victor (67% ownership with
100% interest in production until initial loans are
repaid and initial phase is completed), gold
production decreased 35% to 58,000oz due to
pad phase production timing and stacking at
higher levels. Total cash costs increased 3% to
$284/oz, due to a higher royalty charge and lower
production, partially offset by a favourable
inventory adjustment.
Adjusted gross profit decreased 21% to $22m as
a result of the lower sold ounces.
The LTIFR was 9.33 (4.93).

Review of the gold market
The first quarter of 2008 was characterised by a
volatile gold price, with a trading range of close to
$200/oz. While the market in mid March was
exceptionally strong, with the price reaching a
record high of $1031/oz, the price also traded as
low as $833/oz during the quarter.
The average US dollar gold price for the quarter
was $925/oz, 17% higher than the previous
quarter’s average price of $788/oz.
A weaker Rand/US dollar exchange rate saw the
rand gold price reaching highs of some
R271,622/kg. In rand terms, the gold price
averaged R224,308/kg for the quarter, some 31%
higher than the previous quarter’s average of
R171,334/kg.
JEWELLERY DEMAND
Jewellery demand slowed as a result of the high
price volatility experienced during the quarter,
particularly in the key markets of India and the
Middle East. It is anticipated that jewellery demand
for the quarter will show a decline on a year-on-
year basis, but it must be noted that comparisons
made against the first quarter of 2007 may be
misleading as demand during that period was
exceptionally strong and reached record levels in
some markets.
In the Gulf markets, where local currencies are
pegged against the US dollar, the full effect of the
US dollar gold price volatility was felt and this led
to a downturn in demand of approximately 20%
year-on-year. Inflationary concerns in these
markets acted as a further restraint on consumer
confidence. In Dubai, where demand from the
tourist trade balances local demand, the effects of
poor local consumption were not felt as severely as
in Saudi Arabia, where demand is primarily local.
High value, branded segments of the market were
less seriously affected than trade in high caratage,
low value-added jewellery items.
The Egyptian and Turkish markets held ground in
the first two months of the year, however both
markets slowed in March 2008, with the Turkish
market in particular showing a significant fall in
consumption when compared to the same quarter
in the previous year. This was due to low levels of
re-stocking prior to the main summer tourist season
and the political crisis in March which caused the
Turkish lira to decline against the US dollar, thus
driving up the price of gold in local currency terms
still further.
The Chinese market performed strongly despite the
more volatile price environment, with jewellery
demand increasing by some 9% year-on-year and
investment demand by an estimated 63%. Chinese
consumers perceive gold as an investment vehicle
which can provide a hedge against the inflationary
pressures which are increasingly being felt in that
economy. The absence of viable investment
alternatives also helped the case for local gold
investment.
US demand continued the declining trend from the
fourth quarter of 2007, particularly in the lower price
segments of the market. Higher gold price levels
are causing retailers to reduce the quantity of gold
used in jewellery items in order to maintain price
points.
CENTRAL BANK SALES
Sales under the Central Bank Gold Agreement
totalled 70t during the quarter. The bulk of these
sales were accounted for by the French and Swiss
Central Banks with smaller sales by Sweden and
the Netherlands.
IMF sales, though still subject to US congressional
approval, look likely to take place over the longer
term and will most probably be effected through the
existing Central Bank Gold Agreement, without
significant disruption to the market.
INVESTMENT MARKET
The fourth quarter was an active period in the
investment sector. Investment markets in China
and the Middle East were strong at the retail level,
with consumers in both markets moving strongly
towards gold investment.
Investment in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)
continued to grow for the fourth consecutive year.
Total ETF holdings at quarter end stood at 29.7Moz,
with a total value of over $27.2bn.
background image
The majority of inflows during the quarter were
accounted for by the New York Stock Exchange
listed StreetTracks Gold Shares product.
A new ETF was announced in the Middle East, and
is expected to be listed and finalised by June this
year. The ETF is backed by the Dubai
Government and is Sharia compliant.
PRODUCER HEDGING
The size of the global hedge book as at the end of
2007 was confirmed late in February at 26.8 million
ounces. Since then, Newcrest have announced a
further reduction in their hedge book by some
300,000oz.
During the quarter, AngloGold Ashanti reduced its
hedge commitments from 11.28Moz to 10.03Moz,
through deliveries into maturing contracts and
hedge buy-backs.
CURRENCIES
The US dollar continued to fall against the Euro,
reaching a new low of Euro/US$ 1.59 in March
2008. Overall, the US dollar depreciated 8% during
the quarter from its opening value of Euro/$ 1.46.
Post quarter end, the US Dollar continued to be
under pressure at an exchange of Euro/US$1.60.
This weakness is primarily due to growing fears of
an economic recession in the United States which
is consistent with the Federal Reserve’s actions
during the quarter, by cutting its target rate by 2%.
Oil prices have continued to trade stronger, moving
through the psychological barrier of $100/barrel
and reaching a high of $110/barrel during the
quarter. This move did not help sentiment towards
the US dollar, contributing as it did to fears of
surging inflation in a falling interest rate
environment.
The South African Rand suffered its poorest
quarterly performance in some time, losing 19%
from its opening of R/$ 6.84 to close at R/$ 8.09. A
number of factors have contributed to this
weakness, most notably the uncertainty of power
generation and supply, and the effect it will have
on economic growth. In addition, the extent of the
current account deficit within this environment has
added to the negative outlook for the Rand.
The Australian dollar and Brazilian real both traded
to multi-year highs of A$/ $0.95 and US$/BRL1.66,
respectively, in a quarter where both currencies
continued their pattern of steady appreciation.

Hedge position
As at 31 March 2008, the net delta hedge position
was 9.25Moz or 288t (at 31 December 2007:
10.39Moz or 323t). Despite a higher gold price, the
delta of the hedge book was reduced by 1.13Moz to
9.26Moz, and total commitments reduced from
11.28Moz to 10.03Moz, as delivery into maturing
contracts and hedge buy-backs that were effected
during the quarter.
The marked-to-market value of all hedge
transactions making up the hedge positions was a
negative $4.78bn (negative R38.77bn), of which
$2.73bn (R22.10bn) is on balance sheet as at
31 March 2008 (at 31 December 2007 the hedge
position was negative $4.27bn or R29.10bn). This
value was based on a gold price of $917.40/oz,
exchange rates of R8.10/$ and A$/$0.91 and the
prevailing market interest rates and volatilities at
that date. The increase in the negative marked-to-
market value was primarily due to the higher spot
gold price.
For the quarter, the company’s received price of
$755/oz, was 18% lower than the average spot
price of $925/oz for 2008, the gap in the
received and spot prices is likely to be between
20% to 22% going forward, provided that gold
trades in a price range of approximately
$900/oz and $950/oz.
As at 30 April 2008, the marked-to-market value
of the hedge book was a negative $4.32bn
(negative R32.91bn), based on a gold price of
$874.20/oz and exchange rates of R7.62/$ and
A$/$0.93 and the prevailing market interest
rates and volatilities at the time.
These marked-to-market valuations are in no
way predictive of the future value of the hedge
position, nor of future impact on the revenue of
the company. The valuation represents the
theoretical cost of buying all hedge contracts at
the time of valuation, at market prices and rates
available at that time.

Exploration
Total exploration expenditure amounted to $46m
($19m brownfields, $27m greenfields) during the
first quarter of 2008, compared to $48m ($22m
brownfields, $26m greenfields) in the previous
quarter.
BROWNFIELDS EXPLORATION
In South Africa, surface drilling continued in the
Project Zaaiplaats area, with boreholes MZA9 and
MMB5 during the quarter.
Surface drilling in the Moab North area continued
with a long deflection of Borehole MCY4 reaching
a depth of 2,106m and borehole MCY5 advancing
a further 478m during the quarter.
At Tau Lekoa, borehole G54 was completed and
borehole G55 is currently drilling and has reached
a depth of 1,285m at the end of the quarter.
At Iduapriem in Ghana, preparation for Mineral
Resource conversion drilling was started at Ajopa,
with line cutting and drilling pad development
completed and drilling expected to start in the
second quarter of the year.
In Argentina, at Cerro Vanguardia the 2008
exploration programme commenced in February
with 4,731m of diamond drilling and 600m of
reverse circulation (RC) drilling being completed.
A hyper-spectral survey was completed and is
currently being interpreted.
In Australia, at Boddington mine, by quarter end
there were five rigs employed on Mineral
Resource conversion and the near mine
exploration diamond drilling programme. During
the quarter, nearly 25,756m were drilled from
30 holes.
In Brazil, at Córrego do Sítio Sulphide Project,
drilling continued with 10,269m being drilled from
surface, 2,341m drilled from underground and
860m of underground development. At the
Lamego project 4,633m of surface drilling, 3,063m
underground drilling and 946m of underground
development were completed.
At Siguiri in Guinea, exploration activities continued
to focus on 50m by 50m of infill RC drilling at
Sintroko South (situated 8km south of the mine).
Results from reconnaissance air core drilling of the
Setiguia anomaly to the north west of the Eureka
North pit are awaited. Geochemical soil sampling is
ongoing to investigate the western
extensions of the Setiguia and other potassium
anomalies on the north-west trending structures
related to the Eureka North – Kintinian
mineralisation corridor.
Reconnaissance aircore drilling (AC) was
completed and results were received for
coincident AEM and geochemical anomalies at
Kouremale in Block 4, close to the Malian border,
and in Block 3 at Kolita-Kounkoun. These will
require follow up drilling after the rainy season.
At Geita in Tanzania, exploration activities
continued to be concentrated in three areas,
namely, Area 3 (820m); Nyakabale-Prospect 30
(5,288m) and Kalondwa Hill (331m). Diamond
drilling (1,620m) for metallurgical testing was
started at the Star and Comet projects during the
quarter.
At Morila in Mali, a pitting programme was
conducted at Sokela (33 pits) and Domba-Bla
(9 pits) to define the limits of inferred sediment
rafts.
At Sadiola, testing started at the four anomalies,
Sekokoto SE (1,562m); Lakanfala East (5, 650m);
S5 (990m) and S6 (3,272m). In addition, the
Phase 9 Deep sulphide drilling programme started
in the northern part of the Sadiola Main pit
(1,647m) and dedicated mapping was conducted
in the FE4 Pit to provide support for the further
development of the 3-D geological model.
At Navachab in Namibia, drilling focused on ore
extension in the Main Pit and North Pit 2 areas
with 5,200m drilled. Two new drill access roads
were completed at Gecko North. Drilling of
4,780m of exploration infill and advanced grade
control holes at Anomaly 16 has been completed.
Following some positive anomalies from the
Steenbok-Starling soil survey, the grid was
extended southwards. The BLEG stream
sediment survey (195 samples) over the
Okondura EPL3276 has been completed and the
results thus far have been disappointing.
Two new EPLs, Otjombali and Elisenore of
approximately 100,000 hectares each, to the
northeast of Okahandja, have been applied for.
At Cripple Creek & Victor in the United States,
exploration and development drilling continued on
the north side of the district near Schist Island and
Control Point.

GREENFIELDS
Greenfields exploration activities continued in six
countries (Australia, Colombia, the DRC, China,
the Philippines, and Russia) during the first
quarter of 2008. A total of 25,220m of diamond
drilling (DDH), reverse circulation (RC), and
aircore (AC) drilling were completed during the
first quarter of 2008, at existing priority targets and
delineating new targets in Australia, the DRC, and
Colombia.
In addition to a total of 6.95Moz attributable
(9.1Moz on a 100% basis) of JORC Inferred and
Indicated Mineral Resource declared by
AngloGold Ashanti in 2007 at its greenfields
projects, an additional 12.9Moz Inferred Mineral
Resource has been defined at AngloGold
Ashanti’s 100% owned La Colosa project in
Colombia.
In Colombia, regional exploration and target
generation activities continued during the first
quarter with diamond drilling on four prospects. A
major focus was drilling and resource modelling at
La Colosa, where 5,897m of diamond drilling was
completed on the Main Porphyry and La Belgica
sectors. At the end of the quarter, a total of
17,052m has been drilled from 59 holes
throughout the La Colosa area, and an Inferred
Mineral Resource of 12.9Moz has been defined in
the Main Porphyry, at a gold price of $1,000/oz,
as per table below.

La Colosa is the second significant greenfields
discovery (Gramalote being the first) in Colombia
and was discovered by AngloGold Ashanti’s
Colombian greenfields exploration team during
2006. The Project is 100% owned by AngloGold
Ashanti and is located 150km west of Colombia’s
capital city, Bogota and 30km west of the major
town of Ibague in the Department of Tolima.
Since discovery, only 18 months ago, exploration
drilling at La Colosa has rapidly defined “porphyry
style” mineralization at a grade > 0.3g/t gold
extending over a strike length in excess of 1,500m
and a width of 600m. Additional upside potential,
which is considered material, remains untested
both along strike to the north and south as well as
to the east of the drilled portion of the deposit and
regionally, where at least three quality targets
require follow-up.
Included within the pit optimisation are some
0.5Moz of potentially mineralised material that has
not yet been drilled. This material was included in
the pit optimization, as it lies at the crest of the La
Colosa Hill and has not yet been drilled due to
logistical constraints. There is strong geological
evidence that this material is mineralised, and as
it has not been included in the Mineral Resource,
it constitutes further near term upside.
Exploration drilling at Colosa is temporarily
suspended until a new environmental permit is
issued, which is expected within the next few
months.
In Australia exploration in the Tropicana JV
(AngloGold Ashanti 70%, Independence Gold
30%) focussed on the drilling of the Tropicana and
Havana resource and infrastructure sterilisation as
part of the project pre-feasibility study. On
completion of this project at the end of the second
quarter 2008, the focus will be directed to the
regional programmes on the 12,500km
2
of
tenement held by AngloGold Ashanti in the
Tropicana JV and Viking Project (3,500km
2
and
100% AngloGold Ashanti). Reconnaissance work
in the Tropicana JV tenements returned
encouraging rock, auger, aircore and diamond
drilling results. Auger results defined anomalies at
Tropicana Group 4 with sufficient encouragement
to follow-up with further sampling and aircore
drilling later in the year. Mapping at Black Dragon
returned several selective rock chip samples with
anomalous grades up to 22.18g/t. Significant
aircore results were returned from Black Dragon,
Beetlejuice and Screaming Lizard. Diamond
drilling at Beachcomber included a 1.8m quartz
vein intersection with visible gold. During the first
quarter, a total of 258 aircore holes were drilled
for 14,291m and 2 diamond holes for 422m.
A restated joint venture agreement was signed
with Independence Gold during the quarter. The
agreement includes requirements for the future
mining operation and the JV partner has agreed to
jointly fund all regional exploration and certain
other activities outside of the agreed scope of the
Pre-feasibility Study.
Along the Albany-Fraser orogenic belt, where
AngloGold Ashanti has a first mover advantage,
with granted tenements and applications covering
an area of 12,500km
2
dominating a strike length
of 600km. The approximate 3,500km² Viking
project is southwest of the Tropicana JV within the
same Albany-Fraser belt that hosts the Tropicana
background image
deposit. Recent results at Beachcomber and
those reported by other explorers add credence to
this belt potentially emerging as a new gold
province.
Exploration activates in the DRC were undertaken
at Concession 40 (10,000km
2
), which covers most
of the Kilo greenstone belt and remains virtually
unexplored by modern methods. A total of 1,950m
of infill drilling for definition of the open-pitable
Inferred Mineral Resource at Mongbwalu was
completed, and the 2007 Mineral Resource
estimation of 33Mt at 2.68g/t will be updated with
assay results from the twenty holes drilled during
the quarter. A further 14,050m of infill drilling
spaced at 50m by 50m, adjacent to the open pit
resource will focus on defining an underground
resource.
Around Mongbwalu, detailed surface mapping and
data integration is leading to an enhanced
understanding of the potential in the immediate
area. Regional exploration activities focused
around four main areas including Lodjo; Bunia
West; Mont Tsi and Petsi, all located within 50km
of the Mongbwalu resource area. The Mont Tsi
and Petsi prospects are ready for first phase
drilling during the year, and at the Petsi prospect,
up to a 30m wide potentially gold mineralised
shear zone has been identified by trenches over a
distance of 1.8km. Mont Tsi is an historically
mined area where an old open pit, which is
approximately 1.5km long, exposes strongly
deformed and altered mafic granitoid that host
gold mineralisation. Assay results from trenches
for both Petsi and Mont Tsi are still being awaited.
The findings of the DRC Minerals Review
Commission have resulted in AngloGold Ashanti
and the AGK joint venture engaging the DRC
government to seek resolution and agree a way
forward to optimally develop Concession 40.
In Russia the formation of Zoloto Taigi, the
AngloGold Ashanti / Polymetal strategic alliance
vehicle, was completed. It is anticipated that
through the strategic alliance, AngloGold Ashanti
will be in a position to increase its presence in
Russia by pursuing new opportunities through
participation in licence auctions, acquiring equity in
prospective projects and by new project generation
in new or less intensely explored areas. In the
Krasnoyarsk region, diamond drilling to increase
the Ore Reserve by a possible 600,000oz, from
1.8Moz to 2.4Moz, is in progress. A licence wide
geochemical survey is also underway on the
Aprelkova licence in the Chita region.
In China, results from the diamond drilling
programme was completed at one of the targets on
the tenements held by the Yili-Yunlong CJV, and
returned low gold and copper results. Final
evaluation of these tenements will be completed by
the end of the third quarter of 2008. The CJV is
awaiting grant of three exploration licences
applications (130km
2
) in eastern Tianshan. The
area was selected for exploration for copper-gold
porphyries following a government funded soil
sampling programme, which found high levels of
gold (30-60ppb) in calcrete. Final approval of the
Jinchanggou CJV is expected at the end of the
second quarter 2008, with delays caused by
changes to government regulations. Low-cost
exploration programmes have however confirmed
the extension and continuity of gold anomalies.
Mapping and sampling of small open-pit and
underground workings have characterised both the
low and high-grade gold mineralisation. Drilling will
commence following the issue of the business
licence.
In the Philippines, progress was made on the
Mapawa MPSA during the quarter with the licence
approved for grant by the Manila Mines Geological
Bureau (MGB). Final approval/ratification is still
awaited from the Department of Environment and
Natural Resources (DENR).

Liquidity and capital resources:
To service the above capital commitments and other operational requirements, the group is dependent on existing cash resources, cash generated
from operations and borrowing facilities.
Cash generated from operations is subject to operational, market and other risks. Distributions from operations may be subject to foreign investment
and exchange control laws and regulations and the quantity of foreign exchange available in offshore countries. In addition distributions from joint
ventures are subject to the relevant board approval.
The credit facilities and other financing arrangements contain financial covenants and other similar undertakings. To the extent that external borrowings
are required, the groups covenant performance indicates that existing financing facilities will be available to meet the above commitments. To the
extent that any of the financing facilities mature in the near future, the group believes that these facilities can be refinanced on similar terms to those
currently in place.
15.   Contingent liabilities
AngloGold Ashanti’s material contingent liabilities at 31 March 2008 are detailed below:
Groundwater pollution – South Africa – AngloGold Ashanti has identified a number of groundwater pollution sites at its
current operations in South Africa, and has investigated a number of different technologies and methodologies that
could possibly be used to remediate the pollution plumes. The viability of the suggested remediation techniques in the
local geological formation in South Africa is however unknown. No sites have been remediated and present research
and development work is focused on several pilot projects to find a solution that will in fact yield satisfactory results in
South African conditions. Subject to the technology being developed as a remediation technique, no reliable estimate
can be made for the obligation.
Provision of surety – South Africa – AngloGold Ashanti has provided sureties in favour of a lender on a gold loan facility
with its affiliate Oro Africa (Pty) Ltd and one of its subsidiaries to a maximum value of R100m ($12m). The suretyship
agreements have a termination notice period of 90 days.
Sales tax on gold deliveries – Brazil – Mineração Serra Grande S.A.(MSG), the operator of the Crixas mine in Brazil, has
received two tax assessments from the State of Goiás related to payments of sales taxes on gold deliveries for export,
one for the period between February 2004 and June 2005 and the other for the period between July 2005 and May
2006. The tax authorities maintain that whenever a taxpayer exports gold mined in the state of Goiás, through a branch
located in a different Brazilian State, it must obtain an authorisation from the Goiás State Treasury by means of a
Special Regime Agreement (Termo de Acordo re Regime Especial – TARE). The Serra Grande operation is co-owned
with Kinross Gold Corporation. AngloGold Ashanti Brasil Mineração Ltda. manages the operation and its attributable
share of the first assessment is approximately $41m. Although MSG requested the TARE in early 2004, the TARE,
which authorised the remittance of gold to the company’s branch in Minas Gerais specifically for export purposes, was
only granted and executed in May 2006.
background image
In November 2006 the administrative council’s second chamber ruled in favour of Serra Grande and fully cancelled the
tax liability related to the first period. The State of Goiás has appealed to the full board of the State of Goiás tax
administrative council. The second assessment was issued by the State of Goiás in October 2006 on the same grounds
as the first one, and the attributable share of the assessment is approximately $25m. The company believes both
assessments are in violation of Federal legislation on sales taxes.
VAT Disputes – Brazil – MSG received a tax assessment in October 2003 from the State of Minas Gerais related to
sales taxes on gold allegedly returned from the branch in Minas Gerais to the company head office in the State of Goiás.
The tax administrators rejected the company’s appeal against the assessment. The company is now discussing the case
at the judicial sphere. The company’s attributable share of the assessment is approximately $8m.
Tax Disputes – Brazil – Morro Velho and AngloGold Ashanti Brasil Mineração are involved in disputes with tax
authorities. These disputes involve eleven federal tax assessments including income tax, social contributions and annual
property tax based on ownership of properties outside of urban perimeters (ITR). The amount involved is approximately
$9m.
16.  Concentration of risk
There is a concentration of risk in respect of reimbursable value added tax and fuel duties from the Malian government:
    Reimbursable value added tax due from the Malian government amounts to an attributable $47m at 31 March 2008
(31 December 2007: attributable $42m). The last audited value added tax return was for the period ended 31 March
2007 and at the balance sheet date an attributable $24m was still outstanding and $23m is still subject to audit. The
accounting processes for the unaudited amount are in accordance with the processes advised by the Malian
government in terms of the previous audits.
    Reimbursable fuel duties from the Malian government amounts to an attributable $3m at 31 March 2008
(31 December 2007: attributable $7m). Fuel duty refund claims are required to be submitted before 31 January of
the following year and are subject to authorisation by firstly the Department of Mining and secondly the Custom and
Excise authorities. An attributable $3m is still subject to authorisation by the Customs and Excise authorities. The
accounting processes for the unauthorised amount are in accordance with the processes advised by the Malian
government in terms of the previous authorisations. As from February 2006 all fuel duties have been exonerated.
The government of Mali is a shareholder in all the Malian entities. Management is in negotiations with the Government of
Mali to agree a protocol for the repayment of the outstanding amounts. The amounts outstanding have been discounted
to their present value at a rate of 6.5%.
There is a concentration of risk in respect of reimbursable value added tax and fuel duties from the Tanzanian
government:
    Reimbursable value added tax due from the Tanzanian government amounts to $17m at 31 March 2008
(31 December 2007: $16m). The last audited value added tax return was for the period ended 30 November 2007
and at the balance sheet date $13m was still outstanding and $4m is still subject to audit. The accounting processes
for the unaudited amount are in accordance with the processes advised by the Tanzanian government in terms of
the previous audits. The outstanding amounts have been discounted to their present value at a rate of 7.8%.
•    Reimbursable fuel duties from the Tanzanian government amounts to $36m at 31 March 2008 (31 December
2007: $37m). Fuel duty claims are required to be submitted after consumption of the related fuel and are subject to
authorisation by the Customs and Excise authorities. Claims for refund of fuel duties amounting to $17m have been
lodged with the Customs and Excise authorities, which are still outstanding, whilst claims for refund of $19m have
not yet been submitted. The accounting processes for the unauthorised amount are in accordance with the
processes advised by the Tanzanian government in terms of the previous authorisations. The outstanding amounts
have been discounted to their present value at a rate of 7.8%.

17.  Attributable interest
Although AngloGold Ashanti holds a 66.7% interest in Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company Limited, it is
currently entitled to receive 100% of the cash flows from the operation until the loan, extended to the joint venture by
AngloGold Ashanti USA Inc., is repaid.
18.  Borrowings
AngloGold Ashanti's borrowings are interest bearing.
19.  Announcements
On 14 February 2008, AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) announced that it had entered into a binding memorandum of
agreement (MOA) with B2Gold Corp. (B2Gold). The MOA provides for the existing Colombian joint venture
agreements between AGA and B2Gold to be amended. B2Gold would also acquire from AGA, additional interests in
certain mineral properties in Colombia. In exchange, B2Gold would issue to AGA, 25m common shares and 21.4m
common share purchase warrants in B2Gold.
On 4 April 2008, it was announced that following the stabilisation of Eskom (the South African electricity supply body)
power to South African operations during the quarter, AGA forecasted the first quarter production to be approximately
1.19Moz. The revised production outlook was around, 8% above guidance provided at the fourth quarter. AGA had
also fully delivered into maturing hedge contracts during the quarter.
20.  Dividend
Final Dividend No. 103 of 53 South African cents or 3.4848 UK pence or 6.53 cedis per share was paid to registered
shareholders on 7 March 2008, while a dividend of 1.484 Australian cents per CHESS Depositary Interest (CDI) was
paid on the same day. On 10 March 2008, a dividend of 0.0653 cedis per Ghanaian Depositary Share (GhDS) was
paid to holders thereof. Each CDI represents one-fifth of an ordinary share, and 100 GhDSs represents one ordinary
share. A dividend was paid to holders of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) on 17 March 2008 at a rate of 6.606
US cents per American Depositary Share (ADS). Each ADS represents one ordinary share.
In addition, directors declared Dividend No. E3 of 26.50 South African cents per E ordinary share, payable to
employees participating in the Bokamoso ESOP and Izingwe Holdings (Proprietary) Limited. These dividends were
paid on 7 March 2008.

Based on risks and returns the directors consider that the primary reporting format is by business segment. The directors consider that there is
only one business segment being mining, extraction and production of gold. Therefore the disclosures for the primary segment have already
been given in the abbreviated financial statements. The secondary reporting format is by geographical analysis by origin.
1
Gross profit (loss) adjusted for the loss on unrealised non-hedge derivatives and other commodity contracts plus amortisation of tangible and intangible
assets, less
non-cash revenues. Refer to note F of "Non-GAAP disclosure" for the computation.

earnings after adjusting for:
From time to time AngloGold Ashanti may publicly disclose certain "Non-GAAP" financial measures in the course of its financial presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference
calls and otherwise.
The group utilises certain Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios in managing its business and may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful
comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the reported
operating results or cash flow from operations or any other measure of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the presentation of these measures may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures other companies use.

Loss on non-hedge derivatives and other commodity contracts in the income statement comprise the change in fair value of all non-hedge derivatives and
other commodity contracts as follows:
- The unrealised fair value change in contracts that are still open at the reporting date, as well as, the unwinding of the historic marked-to-market value of the position settled in
the period;
- Investment in hedge restructure transaction: During the hedge restructure in December 2004 and March 2005 quarters, $83m and $69m in cash was injected respectively into
the hedge book in these quarters to increase the value of long-dated contracts. The entire investment in long-dated derivatives (certain of which have now matured), for
the purposes of the adjustment to earnings, will only be taken into account when the realised portion of long-dated non-hedge derivatives are settled, and not when the
short-term contracts were settled;
- The unrealised fair value change on the option component of the convertible bond; and
US Dollar million
- The unrealised fair value change on the onerous uranium contracts.

Certain statements contained in this document, including, without limitation, those concerning the economic outlook for the gold mining industry, expectations
regarding gold prices and production, the completion and commencement of commercial operations of certain of AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration and production
projects, and its liquidity and capital resources and expenditure, contain certain forward-looking statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, economic
performance and financial condition. Although AngloGold Ashanti believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no
assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results could differ materially from those set out in the forward-looking
statements as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic and market conditions, success of business and operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory
environment and other government actions, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, and business and operational risk management. AngloGold Ashanti
undertakes no obligation to update publicly or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the annual
report on Form 20-F or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to AngloGold Ashanti or
any person acting on its behalf are qualified by the cautionary statements herein. For a discussion on such risk factors, refer to AngloGold Ashanti's annual report on
Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2006 dated 06 July 2007, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on 09 July 2007.
